Lava Iris X5 selfie phone goes on sale in India

Priced at Rs 8799, the newly unveiled Lava Iris X5 is a selfie phone, or a smartphone equipped with a better-than-average front camera to allow you to click high-quality self-portraits. Aiding that functionality is a front-facing flash which makes things incredibly easy for those who’re faced with dark conditions while snapping their seflies.

This handset kicks in a 5MP auto focus front camera with a BSI+ sensor and a wide angle lens. The Lava Iris X5 is an Android KitKat handset and is powered by a quad core processor clocking a speed of 1.2GHz and accompanied by just 1GB of RAM.

A 5-inch touchscreen display with 720p HD resolution has been placed atop this dual SIM handset, whereas its rear surface is highlighted by an 8MP camera which too grabs a flash and an Omni BSI-2 sensor. 8GB worth of storage is present on the selfie-focused Lava Iris X5 smartphone, and of course, it can be expanded further up to 32GB via its microSD card slot. Powering it from within is a 2100mAh power pack.

Its maker has disclosed that the Lava Iris X5 handset has been released through retail stores in India, but its online presence is only limited to Amazon. The e-commerce site is bundling the phone with a free 16GB memory card only today.
